Liam Kelly has been captain this season and has endured all the highs and the lows that 2022/23 has had to offer.

The Scotland stopper says the players have learned a lot about themselves and football this season but is pleased that the upturn in form has meant everyone connected with the club is on a high.

Kelly says manager Kettlewell is still pushing the players every day in training and putting demands on individuals so they can finish ‘best of the rest’ in the table.

Stuart Kettlewell wasn’t pleased with his sides’ first half performance against St Johnstone, but the second half turnaround showed that his team are not lacking any end of season motivation. 

The manager discussed Nathan McGinley’s staggered return to the training pitch, where he is looking to return after a 14 month absence.

Kettlewell is expecting his former side to be robust when they visit Fir Park in the cinch Premiership but is fully expecting a competitive performance from his players.

Ross County are the opponents in the penultimate home game of the season on Saturday 20 May.

Kick-off is 3pm.

The Story of the Match

The Steelmen go into this one knowing they have safely retained their Premiership status for another season.

Focus is now firmly on maintaining seventh place although they will face a Ross County side who will have taken a lot of confidence from their win over Dundee United last weekend.

That three points lifted the Dingwall side off the bottom of the table and only a point from safety.

Former Motherwell man Jordan White bagged a hat-trick in that game but comes up against a Motherwell side who have had two clean sheets on the bounce and have the league’s in-form striker in Kevin van Veen up top.

The Dutchman has score five times against County this season and will be looking for more in his quest to reach 30 goals for the season.

MATCH OFFICIALS

He joined in 2021 and instantly became a fan favourite. 

Kevin van Veen is adored by the Motherwell fans after his two year stint at the club has brought goals, flair and excitement so far.

Currently on 26 goals with three games remaining in the season, he is breaking all sorts of post-war records at Motherwell, which in turn meant he was nominated for the PFA player of the year.

Although eventually missing out to Celtic’s Kyogo, Van Veen will look back on this season as one of his most successful ones to date.

However, it wasn’t always plain sailing for the Dutchman who actually stepped away from football in his younger years. Despite this, he couldn’t shake the football bug and was eventually scouted in the lower leagues in Holland before joining the PSV academy where he nurtured his trade.

Now at 31, he is feeling better than ever and has had time to reflect on the support he has received from the Fir Park faithful which only spurs him on more to keep them excited at his performances.

Our very own Max Johnston has been shortlisted for the Scottish Football Writers’ Association Young Player of the Year award. 

The 19-year-old spent the first half of the season on loan at Cove Rangers before returning to his parent club in January.

Scoring twice and assisting three times in 15 appearances for Motherwell this season, the youngster has quickly established himself as first choice right wing back under Stuart Kettlewell.

Alongside Johnston, the Writers association has Lyall Cameron of Dundee, Charlie Reilly of Albion Rovers and St Johnstone’s Adam Montgomery.

Only twice in Motherwell FC history has a player scooped the accolade.

David Turnbull won this award back in 2019, following in the footsteps of James McFadden, who won in season 2001/02 with Johnston now in contention to become the third player.

With Premiership football secured for next season, we are looking to finish the season as strongly as possible.

Motherwell knew that a win against St Johnstone would guarantee Scottish Premiership football for next season. 

Travelling north to a sun-soaked Perth, 750 ‘Well fans also made the journey, as Stuart Kettlewell’s men looked to take a step closer to securing seventh place and the ‘best of the rest’ tag in the bottom half of the table.

Apart from Kevin van Veen netting in the first half, only for it to be ruled out by VAR as offside, the half remained largely quiet and the Motherwell manager wanted to see more in the second period.

Van Veen was looking to break a post-war record, scoring in eight consecutive Motherwell matches, and he was presented with the perfect chance after Stephen O’Donnell was brought down in the box on his 100th appearance.

The Dutchman stepped up but was denied by Remi Matthews in the St Johnstone net.

However, VAR intervened and a retake was awarded as the goalkeeper was off his line. With even more pressure heaped on Van Veen, he had the audacity to Panenka the penalty down the middle to make it 26 goals for the season.

Mikael Mandron made sure of the points with his first league goal since joining in January to round off a good day’s work in Perthshire as Motherwell climbed to seventh in the table above Livingston with three games to go.

Motherwell secured their top flight status for a 38th consecutive season with a 0-2 win over St Johnstone.

Goals from Kevin van Veen and Mikael Mandron earned Motherwell their first win at McDiarmid Park since 2019.

The match had a stuffy start with neither side able to create any real chances until the 26th minute.

In-form Kevin Van Veen was played forward and fashioned a chance for himself but his left-footed shot flew just over the bar.

Motherwell looked like they had taken the lead in the 32nd minute. A ball over the top from O’Donnell found Van Veen and with work to do the striker stuck the ball in the net but the linesman’s flag went up and VAR confirmed the decision to rule the goal out.

The Steelmen took the lead five minutes into the second half.

Stephen O’Donnell was fouled in the box and although Van Veen’s first penalty was saved, VAR stepped in and ordered a retake due to encroachment which the Dutchman chipped in for his 26th goal of the season.

St Johnstone tried their best to reply but couldn’t test Liam Kelly in the Motherwell goals.

‘Well were largely comfortable and Mikael Mandron secured the three points in injury time.

Blair Spittal was played in down the left and his cross was poked in by the Frenchman for his first league goal of the season.

The win means with three games to play the Steelmen sit 10 points above 11th place.

“We didn’t impose ourselves in the first half the way we wanted to.

“But we stood up in the second half and dug out the result.”
